Multimedia Art for Advanced Students

This Program is designed for Art students who have demonstrated skills, focus, and maturity beyond an Intermediate level. Our students are typically, but not always, in their upper-middle or high school years. Some are interested in developing, building, or expanding their portfolio, perhaps for application into schools of Art or Design. Others come to the course with an eye towards working with other students with a similar focus, interest, or skill level in Art.

Topics such as composition, perspective, and dimension are addressed at a degree much deeper than can be found in Beginner or Intermediate levels. Advanced Students are rotated through a variety of specific lessons in content areas such as: Painting with Acrylics, Watercolors, Oil Pastels, Drawing, Printmaking, Collage, Sculpture, Hand-Built Pottery, and Ceramics. Other topics may be taught depending on student interest or special request.

Small class sizes ensure personal attention from the Art Teacher and focus on supporting individual skill and knowledge building.

Each session throughout the academic year has a different theme, so students will have fresh experiences and build upon their skills each time they enroll.

Student Artworks will be selected and on display for Studio Exhibitions throughout the academic year. Browse through our online Gallery to see examples of completed works and works in progress.

Enrollment in the Art for Advanced Students Program is by invitation/permission of the Art Teacher. If you are interested in being considered, please contact Art@MonroeStreetStudio.com and be sure to include photographic samples of your current work.

Did you miss the beginning of the session but still want to enroll? Want to do a trial class to see if it is a good fit for your student? Opportunities are available – please contact dhaptonstahl@monroestreetstudio.com for details.

Attendance policy: Due to the nature and continuous presentation and refinement of new skills and techniques covered in this program, we ask that students do their very best to attend all classes within a session. At the end of the session, there will be a makeup opportunity for anyone who has missed a class for whatever reason within that session. Students who have successfully attended all classes within a session may pay a drop-in fee and attend the makeup class to complete any unfinished pieces. We will no longer be issuing credits or refunds when two or more classes missed due to student schedule conflicts or illness. Students who are aware that they might miss two or more classes should discuss the situation with the Studio prior to registering for the class.
